Pentax K-3 and D FA 100 macro with 1.4 TC
It’s not easy getting iamges of moving subjects with a macro lens, but I like the results.

MY table is a mess. A tripod with Merlin set up on the table, so I know what’s round, usually a couple of lenses. Sometimes two bodies. My phone, keeping track of my solar panel. (I have one and one battery, to mess around with, they are powering my computer right now.) Did you know a modern mac mini with a 4k monitor only draws, 34 watts? I remeber when it would have been 200 watts, a hundred for the computer and 100 for the monitor. I keep myself busy,

Unfortuantely my mind is now racing to “How can I pull this off?"
